Labour attack dog Michael Dugher has upped the pressure on Hague after Guido’s revelation that it was the Foreign Secretary’s PPS that called Miliband a See You Next Tuesday over Syria. He told LabourList:

“There is a pattern of behaviour in David Cameron’s government. Whether that’s the rather stupid and puerile comments made on a regular basis by Michael Gove; the alleged foul-mouthed outbursts by William Hague’s parliamentary aide; or frankly the rather inept and unprofessional briefings from some very weak performing individuals who simply can’t take the pressure in Downing Street.”

Guido is not sure the sweary opinions about Miliband are exclusive to Downing Street, or even just the Tory party.

UPDATE: A government source hits back:

“This is laughable coming from the man whose only political achievement so far was acting as the mouthpiece for a failed PM who had one of the worst PR images in history. Now he’s just become a cut price version of Tom Watson.”

Ooooooh. Guido will report back on whether they’re going to take that.
